PBL labs have released a comic book that describes the role of Interferons in fighting the Influenza virus. One of their reps tells me that this will be a regular feature and show Interferons in other disease states. They are looking for feedback and also offering a free subscription at:
Interferon Force homepage

They also have a cool Interferon theme song which can be heard at:
Interferon Force on Myspace

I haven't seen anything like this in a while. Pretty cool idea to teach people about interferons.

Pretty cool - in the style of superhero comic books (as opposed to Newspaper comic strips)...

Here is the first sample page from PBL Interferon Force

Just to let everyone know, Interferon Force is written by Ed Dunphy (aka Amekoth on this board). The first issue is available online and we are working on new pages right now!

Thanks for providing the link, nizami!

And thanks for hooking up the image of the first page, Tony.

Wow! That is great Ed! I had no idea you wrote this one too.

Are you currently working on any other comics besides Lab Bratz and Interferon Force?
